Travis Hunter returned to practice with the Buffs on Monday after missing the team's last three games due to a liver injury.

In the video, the wide receiver could be seen participating in one-on-one drills and appeared to be his same old self in the Buffaloes' first three games that they won, per Bleacher Report.

There remains no official word on whether Hunter will be in action against Stanford.

Buffs coach Deion Sanders initially hoped that the 20-year-old would be back by October 28 when they play UCLA. Now, Travis Hunter could be back in harness earlier than expected.

Do the Buffs need Hunter against the Cardinal?

The Buffaloes are installed as favorites against the Cardinal this coming weekend, so it will be interesting if Deion Sanders will throw Hunter in the mix.

Colorado is favored to prevail over Stanford by oddsmakers.

Hunter was injured after taking a hit from Henry Blackburn of Colorado State. That left the two-way sensation with a lacerated spleen, while Blackburn even got death threats for that hit - something that was condemned no less by Coach Prime.

Hunter and Blackburn have since patched things up, burying the hatchet as shown in a shared photo on social media via Fox Sports.

Henry Blackburn was the Colorado State DB whose late hit injured Travis Hunter.

The two met up on Wednesday to squash the beef 🤝

Instead of holding a grudge against the man who lacerated his liver, Travis chose to forgive him 💯

"Just gotta get up and fight again. Good thing the doctors stopped me because if there was no doctors there I'd still be out there playing," Hunter said.
